It'll soon be time to explore the Wasteland yet again. During Fallout Day 2025, Bethesda Game Studios shared the news that Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition is on the way, and is slated to launch across Xbox, PC, and PlayStation on Nov. 10, 2025, a decade after the game's original release.
This new version of the game naturally includes all the DLC and expansions that were released years ago, but also over 150 pieces of Creation Club content and, for the first time, a Creations menu like in Bethesda's Starfield and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. This is meant to make it easier for players to find and install new community-crafted content.
Fallout is capping off 2025 in a big way
Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition may be launching next month, but it's hardly the only big Fallout news of the year.
The Fallout TV series is set to return with a December 17 premiere on Prime Video, and new episodes launching weekly. Season 2 has Lucy and The Ghoul drawn into the city of New Vegas, while clips from the teaser trailer indicate we'll see Caesar's Legion, Mr. House, and of course, a Deathclaw.
The first season was a smash hit, so much so that it rapidly became one of Amazon's biggest-ever series and was renewed for a third season well in advance of the second season's premiere.
For anyone that wants more to play, The Ghoul isn't bound to the TV series and will be arriving in Fallout 76 with the upcoming Burning Springs expansion in December. Actor Walton Goggins is reprising his role, so you can look forward to hearing the same seasoned tones when the expansion arrives.
This expansion has The Ghoul handing out bounty targets, with players able to complete contracts and turn them in for some hard-earned Caps.
